Bob,

Sorry, I haven't used the latest PSP, 4.0 was my last trial, but I have 
upgraded my PI to version 5 (from 3.1, to 4.2, to 5.0).  I love it!

The latest version does lightning strikes, lens flares, MANY great effects 
and has a built in animator.  With 4.2, I could make stunning text, with 
drop shadow, light reflection, etc.!  It has a feature to optimize .jpg an 
.gif for the web, it handles different "objects" within one file (like 
layering).  You can overlay, mask, use the opacity feature for desired 
intensities....  All I can say is give it a try!

Regards,
-John

P.S.  I have no affiliation whatsoever with Ulead.  I originally received 
version 3.1se with my scanner!  :-)
